Voice of Bishop
 

If Agent John Bishop does appear in this series, who do you think would voice him?

If Bishop appears he'll probably be so radically different and redesigned from 4kids Bishop just like Hun is that he'll probably be nothing alike.

Not knowing what his personality is in this series his voice could be anything. After Rocksteady became a Russian and Hun an Asian, for all we know Bishop could be Irish or British or something.

Jennifer Hale.

part of bishops backstory is fighting during the civil war and being abducted by aliens so unless his backstory is changed also, i dont see him being anything other than american

Watch them make Bishop into a Brit. He'll say things like, "Jolly good show" and "Cheerio" like Rocksteady says, "Da" and, "Nyet."

Corey Burton?

YES!

Let's give Bishop to a chipmunk!!! :P

and a drake, and a pirate, and a Sith Lord, and an evil Kryptonian A.I.....

He'll always be a goofy Rescue Ranger in my eyes first. ;)

He also has to say stuff like "pip pip, my good fellow!" and drink tea and eat scones.

And wear tweed.

They can turn him into Giles from Buffy. :D

You gotta be kidding me.:roll:

Seriously, CyberCubed, you need to calm down.

I fully endorse this!!

I'd have another option to add to the poll, Steve Blum.

We've already had him come on as Speed Demon, which was an okay role. But I feel that was more of him testing the waters as a character within the TMNT universe.

On nick shows, Steve Blum is more well known for his role as Amon on Legend of Korra.

Here's an example of a voice he's done that could be possible for Bishop




Jeff Bennett is also a suitable voice for Bishop. He's has numerous voices jobs under his belt, some of the more notable voices he's done is Brooklyn and Owen Burnett on Gargoyles. He's also done the voice of Kowalski from Penguins of Madagascar (TV series not the movies) and Shiro Shinobi on Legend of Korra. This video has some of his voice roles I'd say of these particular voices I'd say the voice he uses

For Brooklyn (Gargoyles), Red Tornado (Young Justice), and Darth Revan (Star Wars something) Are the voices that could fit Bishop.
And the fact he's buddies with Rob Paulsen doesn't hurt either.

Second...

making bishop british would suck and take away most of his edge

lol didnt mean british ppl had no edge, just referring 2 bishops

But why? It's all about how he's played. If they play it like Cybercubed sees Brits, then yes....he'd be Chief Constable Biggles. But given the right writing and voice actor, he could have quite a bit of "edge."

well, in worlds collide, he had a "im gonna kill u and dont give a flip how much u scream" hardcore-ness in his voice but adding cheerio or other british terms w/ that accent, it loses alot of that hardcore attitude, at least thats the way i image it

John Bishop fought in the War of 1812. We know he participated in The Battle of New Orleans specifically as it was during the duration of that battle was when he was abducted. Hope if Bishop appears he will remain close to as he was in the '03 cartoon.

I put Corey Burton on the list because of his role as Hugo Strange in Batman: Arkham City.

I was gonna say there's a chance we won't even get a Nickelodeon incarnation of Bishop, though I could be wrong. At any rate, keep the thread going.

Rocksteady speaks another language, so I think it's justified to let him use some words from his country.
British however is just an accent and the image some Americans have of British people is absolutely retarded.

Alright, serious suggestions:

Mark Hamill
Steve Blum
Patrick Stewart

And given the crew's tendancy to nod-cast:

Hugo Weaving
Jan Rabson
Joshua Seth
Willem Dafoe
James Earl Jones
Ian McDiarmid

You put Mark Hamill on your list because of the Skeleton King (from another one of Ciro's shows), right? And do you guys have any idea why I put Jason Marsden on the poll? I'll give you a hint. One of his characters' initials is CY.

Uh no, the first three ones are there as geniune choices. Hamill and Blum because of previously similar roles (I'm not at all that familiar with that robot monkey cartoon honestly) and Patrick Stewart because... I mean c'mon, It's Patrick Stewart, the dude is a fantastic actor and I'd like to see him play what is basically a serious version of Avery Bullock.

Lance Henriksen. That is all.

I voted for Jim Cummings because it would be cool to see him return to TMNT in some capacity. Didn't he play Leatherhead in the original show?

Yes, and also Shredder in some episodes. He's on the list because of Dr. Robotnik from SaTam.

A thought occurred to me. If Bishop is going to be in this series, there's a chance that he knew Mrs. O'Neil. And I mean the real one, not that shapeshifter.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

I choose me. I need work.

For a realistic answer in this series, just look to horror movie actors that haven't already played someone else. I'd say Jeffrey Combs but he's already Rat King.

Regarding the British stuff, unless you are intentionally changing things, you don't want that because he's a total American G-man type dude. He's MIB, he's Agent Smith. You could make him be from another country's organization or an international one and do it though, sure.

Corey Burton only because I'd want him to use his Hugo Strange voice from Batman Arkham City for laughs.

If not, I'd say Steve Blum. I can see the type of voice work he does for Bishop.

I want to say Steve Blum, but I kinda hear him a lot everywhere. So, probably Jeff Bennett or even Brent Spiner.

I would be more worried about whether or not Bishop is portrayed as a formidable threat. Particularly after the EPF's poor showing against the Kraang. ;)

They could have Bishop come in to rebuild/improve the EPF because it did such a poor job.

Now I'm imagining Tarkin whipping the Imperials back into shape from Star Wars Rebels, and I like it!

Morgan Freeman, although I think he should voice everyone.

This is what I was going to say! He's got a great voice! If not him, maybe Peter Cullen or Jesse Harnell.
